Rossi Wellness Center

History

The Rossi Wellness Center was created and organized by John Del Rossi, MPAS, PA-C, AAHIVS, ABAAHPD. Throughout Mr. Del Rossi’s 14 year health care career, he realized that our present health care system (or model) is not working. Despite spending more than $2.2 trillion dollars annually on health care, we are not the healthiest nation. This is so because, at present in our country, we do not practice “health care”. We think we do, but we really practice “disease care”, meaning that most individuals are not proactive in their own health or go to the doctor’s until they are already in a diseased state. Most people wait until they have “conditions” or disease before they do anything about their health.

And just what are these “conditions” people are getting? It’s not strange or mysterious diseases that are the problem, it’s basic conditions such as heart disease, obesity, diabetes, depression, arthritis, and high blood pressure. Conditions that are largely related to basic behavioral choices we make on a day to day basis. Choices such as what we eat, how much exercise we get, how much sleep we get, how many hours we work, and how much and what we worry about.

As well, many people are relying on the whim of pharmaceuticals to treat these and other conditions. There is a pill to sleep, a pill for headaches, a pill for stomach acid, a pill for aches and pains, a pill to lose weight, and even pills for erections! Yet with all this medication, most are not thriving. This doesn’t mean that all pharmaceuticals are unwarranted. In conditions related to pain, infection, mental illness, and others outside the scope of this website, they are a godsend. Still, our society does take too many pharmaceutical drugs.

Mr. Del Rossi realized that the face of medicine must change. The way it has been practiced for the past fifty years isn’t as relevant in today’s world. He felt that as a health care provider, he should spend more of his time promoting (and practicing) things such as optimal nutrition, an active lifestyle, the avoidance of environmental pollutants, early disease detection, homeopathy first-pharmaceuticals last, and emotional strength. He should encourage patients to think about health care in terms of prevention.

Thus, he sought  to apply these concepts  in his daily delivery of health care.  With this endeavor in mind, as well as with the experience of his nearly decade and a half of direct patient care,  Mr. Del Rossi created  the Rossi Wellness Center based on the following cornerstones:

• Know how your body works and know how to listen to it
• Take nutrition seriously
• Avoid pharmaceuticals unless absolutely necessary
• Exercise regularly
• Get enough sleep
• Know your numbers (labs, blood pressure, etc.)
